A Modern Manifesto: an exciting new title from our founders Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill, with an exclusive discount for our readers
Over the next few weeks we’re celebrating the publication of Ornament is Crime by our founders, Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill.
The book is a visual manifesto that offers a celebration and thought-provoking reappraisal of modernist architecture – proposing that it no longer needs to be confined by traditional definitions. It examines iconic works by Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Walter Gropius alongside some of the best contemporary architects of the twenty-first century, arguing for a continuous progression of the movement from its roots through to the present day.
We’re offering our readers an exclusive discount in next week’s newsletter.
